Everything about White River Utah totally explained
The
White River is a tributary of the
Green River, approximately 160 mi (257 km) long, in the
U.S. states of
Colorado and
Utah. Flows vary from 450 ft³/s (13 m³/s) late summers in dry years to well over 12,000 ft³/s (340 m³/s) in spring.
It rises in two forks in northwestern Colorado in northeastern
Garfield County in the
Flat Tops Wilderness Area in the
White River National Forest. The North Fork rises in
Trappers Lake, and flows northwest, then southwest. The South Fork rises ten miles south of the north, flows southwest, then northwest, past
Spring Cave. The two forks join near
Buford in eastern
Rio Blanco County, forming the White. It flows west, then northwest, past
Meeker (site of the
White River Museum), and across the broad valley between the
Danforth Hills on the north and the
Roan Plateau on the south. Downstream from Meeker, it's joined by
Piceance Creek and
Yellow Creek. In western Rio Blanco County, it turns southwest, flows past
Rangely, where it's joined by
Douglas Creek, and into
Uintah County, Utah, where it joins the Green two miles south of
Ouray.
The White River is navigable by small boats throughout most of its length. But in low water years the water level may be too low for navigation for a period of several months.
